Night (this Night, Agitated By The Growing Storm) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFGH EIJK I

This night agitated by the growing stormA
how it has suddenly expanded its dimensionsB
that ordinarily would have gone unnoticedC
like a cloth folded and hidden in the folds of timeD
-
Where the stars give resistance it does not stop thereE
neither does it begin within the forest's depthsF
nor show upon the surface of my faceG
nor with your appearanceH
-
The lamps keep swaying fully unawareE
is our light lyingI
Is night the only realityJ
that has endured through thousands of yearsK
